Mathue's ideas

lower bar area

Q

This has changed my perspective on the cabinet color that Sarah started to lean towards. I also like the brass colors for pop.

Q

Wood bench...

Q

Love the color/stain of the wood on the islands.

Q

Range that doesn't obstruct view too much

Q

Cool use of penny tile. We like penny tile....provided it doesn't become a cleaning issue.

Q

Storage!

Q

More cool storage

Q

White cabinets, butcher block.

Q

I like the wood beams, open ceiling, lots of light, butcher block.

Q

Overall feel here isn't bad. Bright, white, wood. I like the wood shelf on the right.

Q

I like the color scheme here, but I don't think it's our first choice at the moment.

Q

Not exactly my favorite, but it contains elements we like: white cabinets, interesting fixtures, wood floors (although I'd prefer a different type of wood floor). I like the wood on the island...

Q

Pretty cool sink, but I know Sarah want's a white farm sink.

Q

This definitely lacks function, but I like the wood tile in the shower. This is probably too "cold" for Sarah, but I'm a sucker for wood elements.

Q

Sarah really likes this bathroom. I'd prefer cabinet storage behind the mirror. I'm not sure how I feel about the floor....I think it would be too busy in person. I do like the mix of white, black, and wood though.

Q

The only thing this shower is missing is a bench. I really like the tile on the floor from a visual perspective (although I wonder about cleaning it). I love the natural light, but I don't know if it's necessary. Overall, I like the white/grey color scheme of the shower as well.

Q

I like the fixture and brass with the dark cabinets, but Sarah is thinking white cabinets. I still wouldn't mind a few touches here and there of some non-traditional pops.

Q

Fixture and industrial elements. I want a more traditional look, but I wouldn't mind some industrial elements incorporated.

Q

Narrow storage

Q

Wood bar - Not my favorite finish, but I love the rawness of this piece. We saw something similar in a home that we were looking on, but it was better done in that case.

Q

Nook - Not needed, but I like the built in if we do decide to have one.

Q

Overall feel: The counters are darker than we're looking for, but we've thought about a darker island like this.

Q

Overall feel: This is somewhat similar to the ideas Sarah has discussed. Wood floors, white cabinets, lighter stone. I'd like to see more interesting fixtures, and some more wood worked into the space.
